Ambitious Professor Gerald Deemer (Leo G. Carroll) has developed an astonishing new project: a special growth formula. Testing the formula on his innocent lab tarantula in Arizona he expects nothing more than it to double in size. But when it somehow escapes into the desert, it grows to gargantuan size and threatens to destroy everything and everyone in its path. (Umbrella Entertainment)
